09:00 PM : The Killing @ Hotel Deluxe Parking Lot
Movie/Film/TV Flyered by kmikeym
Join us five stories up atop the Hotel deLuxe's parking structure (729 SW 15th Ave) to enjoy the magic of a balmy summer night in Portland (yes, we have them) with 360 degree, moonlit views of the city at its most urban and urbane. The evenings begin at 8pm with live music and refreshments. Gracie's Restaurant will offer easy-to-juggle meals, snacks and cocktails, and additional beverages will be available from TAZO and Sierra Nevada Brewing. The screenings start at dusk-around 9pm-depending on the somewhat predictable, but ever-changing, whims of darkness. Bring your favorite portable chair or blanket, but please, no pets or outside food, or drink. Admission $7.

THU AUG 02 8:00 PM HOTEL DELUXE - 729 SW 15TH AVE
After spending five years in Alcatraz, Johnny Clay (Sterling Hayden) decides that if he's going to commit crimes, the risk had better be worth the punishment-so he masterminds a brilliant scheme to steal $2 million from a local racetrack. The beauty of the plan is that it's foolproof and "no one will get hurt..." Hitchcockian suspense and a fresh take on noir enrich this classic heist film from a young Kubrick, subject of a NWFC retrospective indoors) through August. (85 min)
Music: Bright Red Paper
